We study the welfare costs of inflation in a monetary general equilibrium model with networks in the labor market …. Inflation affects the consumption-leisure choice differently depending on job network structure; inflation hits harder in more … connected networks. In these networks, people consume more and enjoy more leisure, leading to higher welfare. Inflation reduces …
